OK, so I'm clear here, you need a door that can be unlocked from inside and outside only in an emergency, so it remains secure from "casual" opening at other times?

This kind of thing, I've not seen them here but that doesn't mean they don't exist, you'll need a specialist supplier I suspect.

Sorry, I really don't remember the relative prices The zinc plated / galvanised ones need a special etching primer for the zinc, then a decent outdoor paint. Talk to your local paint/coatings emporium.

Our original zinc-plated gutters lasted about 5 years, they were primed and painted on installation (get the right primer) which I'm sure helped avoid too much rust. They were replaced by nice, shiny stainless ones of the same format which are still shiny 7 years on, I expect them to outlast me. The old gutters are now seeing service on the chook house, Madam doesn't waste anything

Dapper little man in a suit goes into remote outback bar. A bunch of the big brawny locals are all wondering what he’s doing there. Is he a taxman, farm inspector, sheep welfare official or some other government nosy -parker. Finally, one big lad goes up to him: ‘g’day cobber, you a tourist or what?’ Man: ‘No actually, I'm looking to move here’ ‘So, what do you do?’ ‘Actually, I’m a taxidermist ‘A F##kin WHAT?’ ‘Oh, I like to stuff animals!’ Guy turns to his buddies ‘Hey guys, it’s alright, he’s one of ours!’

Immortalised! Just like they would have wanted

Early fake news ...

Nah, we're in Northern Bangkok. It's not even approaching 20oC (on the way down), my lady likes to be prepared!

Madam has already got her arctic gear out (woolly hat and scarf given to her by my parents) although she's not actually worn it yet. The winter bed comforter has been taken out of storage and is being aired as we speak. Madam will spend most nights rolled up in it anyway. Meanwhile I shall continue to lounge around in my shorts and sandals, I may put a T on early in the mornings.

And, AC rated, hence my saying a motor capacitor.

6.3uF will be just fine, these devices are not tight tolerance anyway. Any AC rated (i.e. motor) capacitor will do the job, take the old one to your local electrical emporium or hunt out something similar on Lazada.

With that length of guttering you will need a lot more downpipes than you think. Similarly, with your "pots". A decent downpour will drop a surprising amount of water on the roof which will all end up in the guttering. We have stainless-steel gutter, pretty slim and unobtrusive but with a surprising capacity. We got a man in, they have the kit and the knowhow, it's definitely not a solo task! Sadly, I don't recall how much it actually cost, but it wasn't cheap.

Last evening in BKK you would have had no problem!

It can be more entertaining that Thai TV It's when you see an unknown red sock pass the window that panic sets in!!

Both the liquid and powder for front-loaders have a picture of a front-loader on the packaging. The wrong stuff foams too much and won't rinse properly. Like this: - Not this: - Even I can get the right stuff (we have both types of machine so failure isn't a disaster).

Yeah, even on a big image it just won't go away. My brain is damaged forever!! Interestingly, my wife, who is blind as a bat without her specs, saw it straight away (although she didn't know who it was).

In the civilised world that would be "attempted murder". Here? Take care and look after yourself! Or else!!

You need bad-girls too, then you get eggs

Save the file and look at the thumbnail from a distance, it's much more obvious. It's one of those things that, once you see it, it's impossible to un-see.

And geese, gotta have geese!

This is Liverpool Lime Street Station. Now squint a bit and look again

Remember last year we were joking about AI moderation? EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE! Ah, sorry about that, software glitch!! Rest assured that all our moderation staff are mostly human.

Hover over it and it tells you that you are a Gold Member. It's another of those "enhancements" that software engineers make when they can't fix the actual bugs
